Color ny25- each hair has a uniformly zonal coloring, that is, alternating zones of black and light brown, usually 2-3 zones of each color. In general, the entire fur looks very evenly colored without any spots or stripes. Spots are allowed on the tummy, stripes on the neck (necklaces) and, preferably open ones, on the paws and tail. And the muzzle should also be painted. All this against the background of an undercoat of warm, apricot-orange tones. In general, the ticked color is also called Abyssinian, that is, the color Abyssinian cats- this is the ideal and classic ticked color. Ticked kittens are born without spots or stripes, dark, and then lighten.
Color ny11- each hair has a so-called tipping - a black tip, the length of the black zone can reach from 1/8 of the entire hair (then it is a chinchilla) to 1/3 of the hair (then it is a shaded color). But, genetically, this color develops according to some pattern - according to spotted color, striped or marbled, therefore, as a rule, the remains of the pattern still appear. Therefore, this color is also very good, especially if it is in light gold, but not as uniform as ticked. Shaded kittens are born with stripes and spots, which fade to varying degrees with age.
TYPED GOLDEN COLORS OF CATS. A guide to identifying colors in pictures.
GOLDEN CHINCHILLA(veiled)
The coat is a golden veiled color. The ideal undercoat color is a rich warm cream, but it can vary from radiant copper or copper brown to light apricot. The base color specks occupy about 1/8 of the length of the hairs. Back, sides, head, ears, tail , as well as the muzzle and legs with light speckling. The chin, ear tufts, chest and belly, the inside of the legs and the lower part of the tail should be in the same tone as the undercoat. The coat should not have any pattern.
A striped pattern, closed rings on the legs, an undercoat mixed with brown tones, a white or almost white chin, connected in one way or another with a light chest, ears and belly, are considered a vice and exclude the possibility of receiving a reward.
Golden chinchilla. The nose is brick-red with a brown rim. The paw pads are brown-black. The eye color is even green or green-blue with a brown-black rim of the eyelids. Green is preferable.
Golden blue chinchilla. The eyes are green or green-blue with a blue rim of the eyelids. The nose is deep pink, with a blue border. Paw pads are blue.
Also Golden purple chinchilla.
GOLDEN SHADED.
The coat is a golden shaded color. The ideal undercoat color is a rich warm cream, but it can vary from radiant copper brown to light apricot. The base color specks occupy approximately 1/4 or 1/3 of the length of the hairs. The speck runs from the back to the sides, slightly extending beyond the legs. A slight striped pattern is allowed on the legs. Muzzle and top part The tail is also speckled. The chin, ear tufts, chest and belly, the inside of the legs and the lower part of the tail should be in the same tone as the undercoat.
In general, the golden shaded cat is darker than the golden veiled (chinchilla).
A striped pattern, closed rings on the legs, mixed with brown tones, an undercoat, a white or almost white chin, connected in one way or another with a light chest, ears and belly, are considered a fault and exclude the possibility of receiving a reward.
Golden shaded. The eyes are even green or green-blue in color with a brown-black rim of the eyelids. The nose is with a brown-black rim. The paw pads are brown-black.
Golden blue shaded. The eyes are an even green or green-blue color with a blue rim of the eyelids. The nose is deep pink with a blue rim. The paw pads are blue.
Also golden lilac shaded.
GOLDEN SMOKE COLOR.
In smoky hair color, about half of the hair is colored. The root of the hair is cream or light apricot in color, the tip is colored. Thanks to this distribution of pigment throughout the hair, the coat appears fully colored with a lighter “collar”.
From above, in a calm state, the cat looks like it is evenly colored, and only when in motion does the golden part of the color become noticeable. The width of the golden part varies from a thin stripe on the head and legs, which is noticeable only with careful analysis of the fur, to almost golden wool on the collar and tassels ears, belly and lower part of the tail. A light gold lightened M-shaped pattern on the head is allowed.
Young animals often have stripes or reverse contrasts in color, which usually disappear with age. In adult animals, any pattern, spots, other tones in color or reverse contrasts are considered a defect and exclude the possibility of receiving a reward.
Since shading is combined with both black-base and red-base colors, it can appear in all tortoiseshell colors.
Theoretically, golden undercoat can also be obtained in a red-base color, but so far breeders have not found such a combination worthy of attention. Lack of contrast in Red Gold Shaded makes the effect almost indistinguishable, but in black spots Tortoiseshell Golden Shaded or Tortoiseshell Golden Chinchilla it is quite noticeable.

In cats of silver shaded and shaded chinchilla color, only the end is colored and the root part of the hair is practically bleached (silvered). This is due to the suppression of basal pigmentation by an inhibitor gene, which is designated by the symbol “I”. This "silver" gene exists in both agouti (chinchilla, silver shaded) and non-agouti (smoky) cats.
In silver shaded cats, the tip of the hair is colored approximately 1/3 of the length, in shaded chinchillas - only 1/8, without any stripes. This distribution of color throughout the hair is called typing.
Both colors are coded as "smoky" colors, but with numbers 11 - shaded silver and 12 - chinchilla (shell). Depending on the color of the hair tips, the name of the main color is added to the names of the colors of shaded cats. For example, BRI ns11 – black silver shaded.
The fur of a chinchilla-colored cat looks elegant and rich, like an arctic fox fur coat - white, with a black coating. Paw pads, nose rims, eye rims are black. One of the main charms of silver chinchilla and silver shaded cats is that their eyes and nose are outlined with a bright black line, as if the cat had makeup done. Both colors mean that there should be no closed stripes on the limbs, tail, or chest (such stripes on the chest are called a necklace).
The eye color of chinchilla and shaded silver cats is bright green. If a silver shaded cat has yellow or orange eyes, then the eye color coding is added to the color coding: 62. For example, BRI ns11 62 – black silver shaded pewter. The eyes of silver chinchilla point cats, in accordance with the standard, have various variations of shades of blue-blue. Silver point chinchillas look lighter than chinchilla cats; due to the genetic characteristics of their color, their veil can be 1-2 shades lighter than the main, genetically determined coat color of the animal. 33 is added to the color code. For example, BRI ns11 33 – black silver shaded point.
In practice, you can distinguish a silver agouti from a silver non-agouti by the nose: silver agoutis (Chinchilla & Silver Shaded) have a brick-red nose, edged with a darker rim (the so-called “agouti nose”). To be extremely accurate, it is necessary to remember that both of these colors are genetic agouti (at least one gene A is present in their genotype), it’s just that their tabby pattern should be as scattered or shaded as possible. The nose of the smoky series of colors, genetic non-agouti (in the genotype - aa), is completely colored and does not have a darker contrasting edging. Smoky turtles may have a two-color nose speculum, but also without agouti edging. For silver eyes of the red series, this difference is, of course, very arbitrary.
According to the length of the colored upper part of the hair ("tip, tipping", i.e. "tip, tipped" - not to be confused with "ticking", i.e. ticked, consisting of alternating dark-light stripes), silver colors without tabby markings are divided for the following types:
| 1/8 painted - 7/8 white |
1/3 painted - 2/3 white |
7/8 painted - 1/8 white |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| black series | silver shell(ns12; as12; bs12 ; cs12 / chinchilla) | silver shaded(ns11; as11; bs11; cs11 / silver shaded) | s mocke (ns / black smoke; as / blue smoke; bs / chocolate smoke; cs / purple smoke) |
| red series | c ameo s hell (ds12; es12) | c ameo s haded (ds11; es11) | s mocke (ds/red smoke; es/cream smoke) |
Stop color ns12 (chinchilla)
For various reasons, the phenotypic division into Shell, Shaded and Smoke is very arbitrary. In practice, all these colors phenotypically smoothly flow from one to another. There are many variations and quality grades of these colors: shaded chinchillas, light and dark shaded silvers, smokes with insufficient tipping or virtually no root highlighting of the hair. The length of the tipping (dyed part of the hair) and the intensity of the contrast with the undyed part of the hair is largely determined by polygenes. In addition to polygenes, the entire silver group of colors depends on age and seasonal changes: the pigment is produced only at the beginning of hair growth, so during periods of molting and new hair growth we are not able to see the true color of the animal. The Shell and Shaded colors (shaded chinchillas and silver shaded) are combined into one color group with the same name “tipped”.
Jean Paul Maas advises using the following criteria in judicial practice:
1. If the question arises whether the cat is too dark a chinchilla or too light a silver shaded, then use the outside hind legs to the hock joint. If the coat color in this place is white, then the cat is assessed as a chinchilla; if it’s gray, then it’s like shaded silver.
2. If the question arises whether the cat is too dark silver shaded or too light smoke, then you need to use the mirror of the nose as a guide. If a cat has an "agouti nose" it is rated as a shaded silver; if the mirror of the nose is completely colored, then it looks like smoke.
3. If the question arises whether the cat is smoky with insufficient contrast or is it a solid color (according to at least, not silver) with uneven color along the length of the hair, then they are guided by the ear brushes (not at the tips of the ears, but in the ears). If the ear brushes are white, then we judge the cat as smoky, if not, then it is in no way related to the silver color.

Cat coat colors are divided into:
Solid- solid, one-color i.e. The cat's body is painted evenly in one color.
Tortoiseshells- a combination of black and red, blue and cream, etc.
With an image Tabby: marbled - 22, striped - 23, spotted - 24, ticked:
Classic tabby / blotched tabby / (marbled, classic)- wide spiral stripes on the sides, reminiscent of marble stains, 22.
Mackerel tabby (tiger, brindle, striped)- pattern in the form of parallel vertical stripes, 23.
Spotted tabby- pattern in the form of spots all over the body, 24.
Cats with tabby coats have lines on their foreheads that look like the letter "M". The coat color of Tabby cats comes in a wide variety of colors.
Bicolors- combination of the main color with white. And etc.

Drawings (tabby), placement of spots and marks
They are designated by a pair of numbers, the first of which indicates the type of trait being described (for example, coat pattern, eye color, or the presence of white spots in the coat), and the second number characterizes the trait itself.
The number 0 begins to indicate the presence of white in the color.
The number 1 begins to indicate the size of the typing for silver colors.
The designation of the type of pattern (tabby) begins with the number 2, tabby colors.
The number 3 begins to indicate the type of point color (Burmese, Siamese).
The number 5 begins to indicate the length of the tail (breeds that are characterized by anomalies in the structure of the tail, such as Manx, Bobtail).
The number 6 begins the designation of eye color (indicated primarily for those colors when the color of the eyes can be different: chinchilla, pewter, white).starting with 0:
